This year MJCS Youth Volunteers are driving a new and unopened gift donation appropriate for elementary school children at PS2 in Chinatown, New York. Those toys will be given out in support of a holiday party hosted by McGraw Hill Financial, a Fortune 500 company based in New York City on Friday, December 11th.

Those Chinatown children are mainly from low-income immigrant families. Many of them do not celebrate the holidays like children in other more privileged neighborhoods; many do not receive gifts on Christmas day and most of their parents have to work during the holidays. We want to give them at least one afternoon of fun (with gifts!) —you can be the one putting the smiles on their faces! Please bring and drop your gifts at the Youth Volunteers desk in school on Saturday, December 5th.

The holiday season is in full swing. Please consider purchasing Shoprite or hMart Giftcards before you head out to do your grocery shopping for the holidays. Shoprite or hMart Giftcards are also great for gift giving. Your purchase will enable the PTO to earn 5% from the sale of the giftcards. Giftcards can be purchased in the lobby at drop-off or at the PTO table in the cafeteria. Thank you for your support!

On Saturday, December 12, 2015, MJCS PTO will be doing a gift wrapping fundraiser at the North Brunswick Barnes and Noble located at the Village Shopping Center off of Route 1 South in North Brunswick from 4:00pm to 10:00pm. Watch out for the Signup Genius email that will be sent out at the end of the week for this volunteer opportunity. All volunteers will receive one credit towards the refund of their PTO deposit. PTO deposit will be refunded upon completion of the required two volunteer credits.

Check out the items we have for sale at the Reuse and Recycle Fundraiser in the school lobby. We have lots of used books and toys. Stop by and check out the offerings each week. All the books are only a quarter each.

A reminder for the families who have completed the required two credits towards the refund of the PTO deposit: Please stop by the PTO desk in the cafeteria to pick up your refund.
